Hello,here is a canvas I did using some of Dusty Attics Amazing chipboard pieces....

Leafy Flourish (DA0759)

Flutterbies #3 (DA0766)

mini heart boarder (DA1015)

teeny tiny ABC (DA0983)

I used the Vintage Summer Basics Collection from Maja Design:1912,1915,&1891
Here are some closeups of detail....

I did some distressed hand stitched layers & some stencil work using The Crafter Workshop Art is & Viva Modelling cream....

I stained all the chipboard with TH distress stain (tea dye & Vintage photo),then applied a coat of rock candy crackle.Once that dried I dried brushed on some white paint,& rubbed it in using my fingers. I used picket fence crackle on the feathers & chestnut liquid pearls on the dangling part of the dream catcher.

Now for the fun part,embellishing the dream catcher. I did some stencil work behind it,wrapped some prima wire thread around the circle part. I then finished embellishing it using,seed beads,beads,bottle cap,jump rings & flower clusters. I love both of the DA dream catchers,so much fun to work with....

I used TH Vintage Photo Stain on all the chipboard,then inked the edges using a dark brown ink pad....

I glued some seed beads in the film strip...

My dogs are Papillon's (butterflys),so that is where I came up with the title,as you can see that my oldest son is getting lots of butterfly kisses...

This is my next project,using the CreaDiem Collection. My middle son was a grooms man,this past weekend & bought a bottle of Dom Perignon Champagne,for a gift. He asked me to scrapbook the box,so this is how it turned out...

I used something old & something new on the box,some of the rub ons,stickers & the hearts used in the cluster have been sitting in my room for years.The box the champagne came in is black,so that is why I decided to use this collection.Here are some closeups of detail....

Of course,because I did the altered box for DD,I had to make a wedding card for Tandri,as he was attending the same wedding. I used the Fika Collection....

The Maja Design used:

Birds on a Branch (DA0333)

Teeny Tiny ABC(DA0983)
